On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
I've been through the desert on a horse with no
name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
cause there aint no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert sun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead
You see I've been through the desert on a horse
with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
cause there aint no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
After nine days I let the horse run free
cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love
You see I've been through the desert on a horse
with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
cause there aint no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

Little did I know
I love you and that's all I really know
C

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress

It's a love story baby just say yes
And I was crying on the staircase
Oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you

And my daddy said stay away from Juliet

And he walked his days
Under african skies

Give you a night deep in moon - shine
This is the story of how we begin to remember
This is the powerful pulsing of love in the vein
After the dream of falling and calling your name
out
These are the roots of rhythm
And the roots of rhythm remain
In early memory
Mission music
Was ringing round my nursery door
I said take this child, lord
From tucson arizona
Give her the wings to fly through harmony
And she wont bother you no more
This is the story of how we begin to remember
This is the powerful pulsing of love in the vein
After the dream of falling and calling your name
out
These are the roots of rhythm
And the roots of rhythm remain
Josephs face was black as night
And the pale yellow moon shone in his eyes
His path was marked
By the stars in the southern hemisphere
And he walked the length of his days
Under african skies

So I sing it to the world
Simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Vision swept under the mat
It's no new years resolution
It's more than that
Instrumental, Verse pattern
Though I'm frightened by the word
Think it's time I made it heard
So I sing it to the world
Simple message to my girl
No more empty self-possession
Vision swept under the mat
It's no new years resolution
It's more than that
No there's nothing quite as real
As a touch of your sweet hand
I can't spend the rest of my life
Buried in the sand.
